Sticks 'n Stones 'n Dinosaur Bones, the debut title in the new series of unhinged rhyming history and science books by popular illustrator Ted Enik, dinosaurs and Dr. Seuss come together in what has been called a "delirious and delightful American Tall Tale." This first book in Enik's new series is a ripping yarn - full of adventure and deceit - that brings to life the best-known public spat in all of paleontology: the bitter rivalry between Edward Drinker Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh that became known as "The Bone Wars." Lively and witty rhymes plus beautiful ("and beautifully demented," says Enik) illustrations by G. F. Newland reveal how the paleontologists' infamous rivalry began and how their mutual obsession with outdoing and ruining one another progressed. The following excerpt from Sticks 'n Stones 'n Dinosaur Bones reveals Enik's playful approach to the very serious business of revenge: Before very long, nearly quick as a cough, These Bone-Hunters' efforts began to pay off! "Well, son-of-a-gun!" boasted Marsh to his men, "This Dinosaur Egg would impress any hen!" "Well, don't that beat everything!" Dr. Cope crowed, "A big pair of Piggy-Toe Bones in the road!" As their digging went-on and they found more and more, They also found out they were both keeping score.

The first book in the Unhinged History series is a ripping yarn--full of adventure and deceit--that brings to life the best-known public spat in all of paleontology: the bitter rivalry between Edward Drinker Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh. This frenzy of discovery and one-upmanship--known today as the Bone Wars--was a gold rush-like scramble to find the most and "best" dinosaur fossils, thus bringing to glory to their respective home-base universities. Lively and witty rhymes plus wonderfully demented illustrations reveal how the paleontologists' infamous rivalry began, and how--despite making genuine and lasting contributions to the field--their mutual obsession with outdoing one another spun out of control.

Sticks 'n Stones 'n Dinosaur Bones INTERNATIONAL BOOK AWARD & USA BOOK NEWS 2014 FINALIST - CHILDREN'S NON-FICTION New book for Juvenile Readers (and Dinosaur Fans of all ages) celebrates and embellishes the best-known public spat in all Paleontology: the cutthroat rivalry between Edward Cope and Charles Marsh that became known as "The Bone Wars." Sticks 'n Stones 'n Dinosaur Bones is the first book in popular illustrator Ted Enik's (and artist G.F. Newland's) "Unhinged History"series of quirky-but-true science / history books. "Sticks n Stones" is a ripping yarn, full of adventure and deceit, in which dinosaurs and Dr. Seuss come together to create a new, delirious American Tall Tale. The following excerpt reveals Enik's playful "take" on how one bone hunter hyped his discovery: 'With a day's-worth of fangs, and a week's-worth of frills, And a month's-worth of monstrously segmented gills, With detachable legs and reversible paws, And invisible wings and uncountable claws; My beast is a creature of legend and lore, An animal never on earth seen before! Behold!' bellowed Cope like a one-person chorus, 'My NeverTopThisOne-Ginormous-asaurus!"' As Sticks 'n Stones 'n Dinosaur Bones reveals, gradually these two less-than-ethical gents resorted to lying, stealing, blackmail, and even destroying fossils in order to advance their own reputations and careers. Nonetheless, as the book acknowledges: Before they went crazy and everything soured Because of them Paleontology flowered! "The writing is excellent... Adults will find the saga just as fascinating as children... The book is a fun read for kids, adults, teachers and their students. It also contains a good moral to discuss." Elizabeth Franklin, Portland Book Review
